Theodore Skreko Violin, Indianapolis, 2021

Patterned after the Lord Wilton Giuseppe Guarneri “del Gesu” of 1742, this fine violin was meticulously crafted by violin-maker Theodore Skreko. The attention to detail is remarkable with painstakingly detailed antiquing; this violin will be difficult for the player to put down. The appearance is complimented by rich overtones and a warm full-bodied sound.

This violin is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Skreko.
